In California, a statehouse panel on April 15 will hear testimony on a nickel-per-bullet tax measure, and in New Jersey, lawmakers want to slap an additional 5 percent sales tax on guns and ammo." ...

"I�m not usually a fan of 'bullet drop compensated' or 'BDC' reticles. The markings on the scope never seem to actually match up with the trajectory of the projectile. And usually that has something to do with the manufacturer not letting you know the particulars of the projectile they used to zero the scope. However, with the 300 AAC Blackout cartridge, the ballistic profile is different enough from the standard 5.56 trajectory that having a BDC reticle makes sense. And the one Nikon just released may be the best out there . . ." ... |

"What usually carries the day is a 'slippery slope' argument, claiming that any restriction, no matter how focused, eventually would lead to disarming the public. This would violate not only the Second Amendment, but also the much stronger language of the Maine Constitution, which says the right to keep and bear arms 'shall not be questioned.'"
